"So who are you guys anyway?"

He felt that his memory seemed to be a little fuzzy.

But anyway, I know about the containment of SCP-3999.

It's not done yet.

"What's your name, Doctor?"

Talloran suddenly asked.

"PhD."

Talloran narrowed his eyes at this answer.

"It's not a name, it's just a noise that comes out of your mouth."

"Why would I even think of omitting something? How could a word be omitted in a normal conversation?"

“Something is wrong…”

Just as Talloran muttered.

suddenly.

The Foundation doctor spoke.

"This interview ends here."

The words fell.

The floor disappeared, and the dark void swallowed up the space again, and a new world twisted and bloomed.

The parchment floated in the void.

The moment he looked at the parchment.

Kamijou Touma and Agni also recalled things that were deeply engraved in their memories.

Text on parchment.

Almost instantly, Talloran and

SCP-3999 is deceased

Researcher Talloran's Mission

Is to accompany SCP-3999 from birth to death

He should live a happy life surrounded by friends and family and make the most of the good things in life (crossed out)

Researcher Talloran is dead (crossed out)

The most feasible option is for Researcher Talloran, believed to be the focal point of SCP-3999, to sever all ties with himself (crossed out)

Researcher Talloran is to meditate at least twice a week to clear his mind of any negative thoughts (crossed out)

If this action fails

The subject is to be shot in the head at close range using a Remington 700 sniper rifle equipped with a silencer.

If SCP-3999 prevents this action, Researcher Talloran's body is to be promptly disposed of with an MP5/10 submachine gun (crossed out)

At this time, the subject's distress signal will be ignored (crossed out)

All of Researcher Talloran's colleagues are to have their hands chopped off and their eyes gouged out in his presence (Execution)

SCP-3999 was allowed to visit Researcher Talloran's sister, who is currently a student at Pennsylvania State University.

SCP-3999, at the behest of its armed guards, brutally treated Talloran's sister.

Tear out her eyes, chop off her legs, gut her, and then use her powers to reverse the damage (Execution)

SCP-3999 poses a serious threat to the lives of all personnel (crossed out)

Researcher Talloran is highly beneficial to the survival of all personnel (crossed out)

Researcher Talloran is to be tortured once a month (implemented)

Torture after torture.

It is reflected in the eyes of countless people in the heavens and all realms.

They were all surprised at Talloran's tenacity, even after being tortured to this extent.

They had no intention of surrendering.

As for Agni and Touma, they were similar, having also suffered varying degrees of torture.

But for Agni.

As long as there is hope of resurrecting his sister, he will never give up.

"Hiss! This SCP-3999 is too cruel. Is it really necessary to go to this extent?"

"This is the Supreme Godhead. I think it's normal to fight back when provoked!"

"Haha! He's a threat to the Supreme God, and he hasn't been killed yet. This only means that there must be something wrong with Talloran."

"What is the connection between Talloran and SCP-3999?"

however.

Even torture has its time limit.

Researcher Talloran, Kamijou Touma, and Agni were lying on the psychiatrist's examination table at the same time.

He sighed in boredom.

SCP-3999 is actually pretty boring.

The parchment floated in the air.

Talloran remained calm in response to this.

"There are only so many possible arrangements of all the atoms left in the multiverse."

"It's undeniable that there are indeed many methods left. You may be an idiot, but I have to admit that you have a very rich imagination."

“But the problem is, you don’t actually try every approach.”

"Because a lot of them are highly similar, and even if they aren't, each attempt will increase my tolerance for pain, fear, and nonsense a little bit, right?"

"So everything you've done will eventually fail, and all this shit won't be scary anymore."

"It's not fun anymore, that's all."

Kamijou Touma and Agni grinned and gritted their teeth. To be honest, they were not used to it.

After all, Talloran has no idea how many times he has been reincarnated, and his heart is as hard as steel.

In a sense.

The willpower displayed by Talloran has long surpassed the limits of human beings.

Is this really still human?

Kamijou Touma examined the parchment carefully.

He found that there were new words on it, which kept appearing at this time.

"Ah, it doesn't matter how many years it is."

"Time is long dead."

Talloran continued to stare and speak.

"I'm just bored and a little disappointed to be honest, and I'm sure you are too."

[SYSTEM ERROR: DATA CORRUPTED. SEE A SITE ADMINISTRATOR FOR MORE INFORMATION]

"Stop that."

"You know as well as I do how this will end, or vice versa."

“How to never end.”

"You can keep going on as long as you want, but we're going to cross a certain threshold."

"Eventually I won't even notice what you're doing, and I guess then you won't have any fun."

Talloran continued.

He now seemed to be a completely different person from the one in memory, and he just spoke calmly.

[SYSTEM ERROR: DATA CORRUPTED. SEE A SITE ADMINISTRATOR FOR MORE INFORMATION]

Kamijou Touma felt a little strange.

It was obvious that the parchment was just repeating this sentence.

But Talloran seemed to be able to hold a conversation with SCP-3999, so calm.

He also wanted to speak.

But I found myself unable to utter a single word.

Apart from thinking, it feels as if the body has been completely replaced, which is unsettling.

"No, I won't."

"If I was going to give up, I would have done it a long, long time ago. It's just that this shit isn't scary anymore."

"I guess it was fun for a little while after that, but then the fun wore off."

"You have imposed everything upon me, and nothing has worked."

"Just accept it."

[SYSTEM ERROR: DATA CORRUPTED. SEE A SITE ADMINISTRATOR FOR MORE INFORMATION]

"How pathetic."

"You're so damn pitiful."

Talloran scoffed.

[SYSTEM ERROR: DATA CORRUPTED. SEE A SITE ADMINISTRATOR FOR MORE INFORMATION]

“Okay, watch.”

"Here's the thing. Your only purpose in life is to make me suffer, right?"

"why?"

"What the hell is there to gain from torturing me? Well, I have a theory."

"That's the problem."

"SCP-3999, you gave someone a million years to suffer, and you also gave him a million years to think."

Talloran's face turned solemn.

He stared at the parchment as if he were staring at an extremely evil enemy.

"In between each melting, I was trying really hard to wrap my head around you. Why did you do this?"

"What on earth are you?"

"Because there's one thing I can't figure out: Why me?"

"Once those reality anchors stop working, you can do this to anyone and everyone."

"But you chose me—the damned Researcher Talloran."

"Not just because I was the first one to enter your cell, because even then, you could always turn to someone else."

“But here we are, each with our own boredom-ridden brains.”

The parchment repeated these words.

It was as if he didn't care about Talloran's words at all, and this moment was just a break in the torture.
